On a side note, in the hbase-ec2 scripts, all the code to run aninstance uses -k root.I changed this to -k $EC2_ROOT_PAIR_NAME where pair name is the nameof the key I created, thus I donthave to restrict myself to -k root. This appears to work for me.

Yeah, this will be superseded by WHIRR-25 over the next month or two.The "root" name was simply a choice, no reason not to change it. Asfor Ganglia, do you see the Ganglia daemon run on each node? If not,please have a look into the logs on the servers, the user scriptsusually log their process in the /var/log/messages or so.
